Mini Koko Worms
Koko worms create calcium based shells like that. The bigger ones that are regular feather duster size are much prettier than a typical feather duster. But DANG expensive i think because they usually form along lps skeletons or live rock and removing one is all but impossible most times. Check out the corals(particularly lps) in a lfs you'll notice an empty shell on some of them at some point. I have 2 smalls ones on my torch.

thanks for the quick reply! I have been looking around for a pic, but no one seems to have one! I think they are neat looking though.

ok, the ones i have are about the size of the end of a pen cap. Do you know how large they get?

Open full size he's that big? or the tube opening? If open full size he's that big they get to be quite a bit larger. A centimeter or 2 in diameter. You may see him grow some. They come in all sizes and colors though and there is no way of really telling.

he is that big open fully. I hope he gets bigger, he is a really pretty red color!
